Marlow Monday Message
Monday, November 21st, 2022
Goooooooood Evening Glenn Marlow Families!!!
It is hard to believe that we are already at Thanksgiving Break, and with that, an opportunity to reflect back on this year so far, and express to you the things that I am most thankful for:
- I am most thankful for our amazing students who come to school everyday, ready to learn. They give us all a daily reminder of what is most important, and why we are here.
- I am most thankful for our amazing staff here at Glenn Marlow: our teachers, teacher assistants, office staff, custodians, bus drivers and riders, cafeteria workers, support staff, PSAM/PSPM workers, psychologists and counselors, and everyone in between, who really care about our students, ensuring that every child will achieve success.
- I am most thankful for the amazing support of parents in creating an outstanding partnership with our students, our staff, and our school. You continue to share your most valued possession with us, and in most cases, work hard and advocate to be a partner in your childβs education, safety, and well being.
- I am most thankful for our parent volunteers who enthusiastically contribute their time and effort into our school, so that we may continue to provide a great education for all of our students.
Overall, in these sometimes challenging times, I see all of these dedicated and tireless individuals go above and beyond to make sure that great things happen at our school everyday. All of you make a difference, and for that, I am most thankful.
I would like to wish all of you and your families a happy, healthy, and relaxing Thanksgiving. Thank you for all that you do, and have a great week.
With Mustang Pride,
John Hart
Principal

A VERY Successful Marlow Thanksgiving Lunch; Christmas lunch is coming...
And of course, none of that could have been possible without the work of our AMAZING Cafeteria Staff -- Ms. Stephanie, Ms. Ashley, Ms. Brooke, and Ms. Karen. Those ladies and our parent volunteers did an amazing job, and the day went so smoothly. Check out our Instagram page for some great pictures. Thank you!
For our 3-5 parents, the Christmas lunch is scheduled for Thursday, December 8th. Invitations should have come home (on green paper), so please complete the form and send it back in if you plan on joining us. An adjusted lunch schedule for that day will be posted after the Thanksgiving break.

A Marlow 'Box Tops' Challenge
Dear Marlow Family,
We are kicking off a new Box Tops for Education leaderboard challenge that is running 011/21/2022 through 12/16/2022!
The goal is to have your child's classroom be in first place on the Fall Leaderboard. The winning class will earn a special reward party when they return from Winter Break!!
Here's how it works:
- Make sure you are registered in the Box Tops app. If not, be sure to use the referral code LEEY04NE to give the school bonus tops!
- Buy Box Tops products during the holiday season, and scan your receipt with the Box Tops app within 14 days of purchase. Digital receipts are also accepted! (a list of Box Tops items can be found on the website and the app).
- After scanning your receipt, make sure Glenn C. Marlow Elementary School is your selected school in the app.
- Tap on Give Credit to select your child's classroom. You can scroll down to add a note with your child's name or additional information on who should get credit.
- The number of Box Tops earned with your receipt will be credited to the classroom you selected. Credits will NOT be dispersed properly if a classroom is not selected.
- To see where your child's classroom stands on our leaderboard, open the Box Tops app, tap on the school card on the Home screen and check out Fall Leaderboard on the school dashboard.
Want to give credit for a digital or email receipt? Go into the Box Tops app, tap on the My Earnings button at the top of the screen and tap on the transaction you'd like to credit. Scroll past the list of products and tap on Give Credit at the bottom of the screen. Then, select your child's classroom.
Let's have some fun and help Glenn C. Marlow Elementary School get our students what they need to succeed!
Thank you,
Lori Hayden - Box Tops Coordinator
